Hello Guys, I was looking in my 1940s Pearson Catalog, And seen a Fish point that was made for Deep Sea bowfishing Rigth ?.. If any of you guys have one could you take a photo as the one showed in the catalog is not real good. Plus I have never seen one before to even know what they look like..

Thanks for the help guys,

Cody

Cody...I have one on an self-nock arrow in the displays that I had at Kalamazoo and Compton. I'm not sure if I have a photo of it off hand but Wade has another model of it also he might have pic's. . I'm at work right now...and I use that term lightly.
It's right up there as one of the coolest heads to have in a collection.   Hink...   :archer:

Cody,  Try copying and pasting the link below on your browser.  It should take you to a close up picture of several broadheads.  I found a site called Archery History at:  http://www.archeryhistory.com/index.php  I found this several years ago and it's got some real neet info on bows, arrows, inventors, etc...

For Pearson Harpoon Head use this link:

p. s. I've got an Type I A wood that I would sell if your seriously interested.  It's got two little brass inserts on the belly side for some type of sight, but it doesn't look bad.  A few scratches from use here or there.  I'd sell it for $1,300.00 shipped.  Let me know.

Cody,
There is a picture of it in the ABCC Fish Point Master list. You didn't get a copy of the list at the meeting?
If you want the master list contact me. I can either send a hard copy or a PDF file.

Cody - Both recognized models of the Ben Pearson Deep Sea Harpoon Head were on display at Compton. You should have spent more time looking at the displays and less time looking at all the girls.

Here is a photo of both models and the descriptive text that will tell you a bit of their history.

Just this morning got an email from another fellow who has one of the heads on the left... proof they can be found anywhere or at anytime by anyone...
